Holder Orders DOJ to Do Further Autopsy on Michael Brown
"Due to the extraordinary circumstances involved in this case and at the request of the Brown family, Attorney General Holder has instructed Justice Department officials to arrange for an additional autopsy to be performed by a federal medical examiner,"
The independent autopsy was conducted by high-profile pathologist Michael Baden. Baden testified in the O.J. Simpson, Phil Spector and Drew Peterson murder trials.
Family attorney Daryl Parks did not provide additional details about the preliminary results.
However, the New York Times reported that two of the bullets struck Brown in the head. The other four struck him in the right arm — and all six were fired into his front.
“This is bound to escalate tensions,” the Rev. Jesse Jackson told CNN. “This is a very provocative report.”

“In my capacity as the forensic examiner for the New York State Police, I would say, ‘You’re not supposed to shoot so many times’,” he told the Times. “Right now there is too little information to forensically reconstruct the shooting.”

Johnson said that after a struggle between Wilson and Brown in which Wilson drew his gun and fired, Brown was struck and ran away. After that, according to Johnson, Wilson emerged from his cruiser and continued shooting even as Brown was surrendering.
“He shot again, and once my friend felt that shot, he put his hands in the air, and he started to get down,” Johnson told a television reporter shortly after the shooting.
Johnson said that after Brown began to move to the ground, Wilson “fired several more shots.”

Johnson, 22, did not tell reporters that he was present with Brown moments before the altercation with Wilson at a strong-arm robbery at a convenience store. There, Brown stole a box of cigars and shoved a store clerk. During his retelling to television reporters, Johnson also indicated that Wilson harassed the pair for no reason.
Ferguson police chief Tom Jackson said on Friday that Wilson was not aware that Brown had been involved in the strong-arm robbery when he first encountered them. But as Wilson was pulling away, he heard a police dispatch call describing the suspects in the robbery. He then doubled-back to confront the two, according to Jackson.
Wilson told investigators that Brown punched him in the face and tried to steal his gun during a struggle inside Wilson’s cruiser.

“How’d he get from there to here?” a bystander asked a man who claimed to have seen Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson shoot Brown.
“Because he ran,” said the witness.
“Police was still in the truck,” he described.
“Why his body come this way though?” the other man asked.
“He was like, over the truck, [garbled] so then he ran. Police got out, and ran after he him,” said the witness.
After running, the witness said that Brown stopped and turned back around.
“Next thing I know he’s coming back towards the police. The police had his gun drawn on him,” the witness said.
“Police kept dumping on him, I’m thinking that the police missed him,” he continued, saying that he heard “at least five shots” and saying that “police are…this far from him.”

A law enforcement source told CNN that Ferguson police actually wanted to release the video one day earlier on Thursday, but held off because of objections by the Justice Department.
Following the release of the video, Jackson said that the officer who shot and killed Brown, Darren Wilson, did not know the teenager was a suspect in the “strong-arm robbery” when he first apprehended him for walking in the middle of the street. Later, he told CNN’s Don Lemon that Wilson may have made the connection between the earlier incident and Brown as he was stopping him.
A lawyer for Brown’s family called the release of the video a “sideshow” that was “aimed at denigrating” his clients’ son’s image. After a period of relative calm in the city Thursday night, protests and looting picked up on Friday night, perhaps as a result of the video’s release.

Steve, not sure if you're asking me or WW, but no, I don't know the Daily Caller.
